INTRODUCTION
The Audio Visual department is part of RMIT’s ITS group. The department provides AV consultancy, project
and procurement support and AV contract management. The AV department consults widely across the
University to develop technology strategies to meet the current and future needs of stakeholders, as well as
providing clear guidelines around AV architecture, design and procurement. In parallel with this the department
works very closely with the RMIT AV Maintenance provider to ensure KPIs and service levels are being met
across all of RMITs installed AV infrastructure.
All AV systems throughout the University require involvement, in some form, from the AV department to ensure
that consistency, quality, value and fit-for-purpose elements are addressed. This document provides a basis for
this, in terms of technology choice and implementation standards.
The first section “General Principles” describes minimum standard requirements for any AV installation within
RMIT University. The second section “Specifications” describes in detail, standard room classifications and any
specific equipment functionality provided to the end user. These specifications will continue to be developed for
the end users based on current and future teaching methodologies/technologies. These standards should be
distributed to all AV vendors (including design and integration providers) for all AV works regardless of size and
scope.

2.3
Design for Maintenance and Serviceability
2.3.1
Requirement
The AV Integrator shall be responsible for ensuring all installed AV systems are easily maintainable and
serviceable by the Principal or their chosen representative. In particular, the following principles shall be
adhered to:
a) Where ceiling mounted projectors are installed in spaces with tiered floors or fixed seating, the
projector shall be positioned in clear space with a flat floor for ease of access.
b) Projectors must be installed on a motorised lift when:
!
Ceiling mounted projectors are installed above raked seating
!
Ceiling mounted projectors are installed 3m above finished floor level
!
Ceiling mounted projectors are installed in any other situation where easy servicing of the
projector would not be possible
When a motorised projector lift is installed it must lower the projector to a service position at 1200mm above
finished floor level. Any equipment associated with the projector must be lowered with the projector for
serviceability and ease of access. Cables traversing the Lifter’s scissor shall be flexible fly leads and suited to
the task. All cables feeding the projector shall be terminated at the top of the lifter in an accessible location if
the need to replace the flexible fly leads arises.
The AV Integrator shall ensure that all other AV equipment is installed with due consideration to service
access.
Control of the projector lift will be via a password-protected page on the touch panel.
To maintain the AV systems intended functionality, User experience, security, and maintainability, the system
requires an approved RMIT Teachers station or Lectern. The standard furniture allows for equipment from the
AVS Standards to be accessible and uniform in all spaces. The joinery may be existing, be supplied by RMIT
Property Services, or the Integrator, this will be defined during the tender process. The joinery will be sourced
through RMIT partners.
2.4
Workmanship – Installation
2.4.1
Work
AV Integrators must carry out all work to a high standard in a professional manner using competent and
experienced personnel who shall be properly supervised. All work must comply with Australian Standards,
University Standards and Industry best practices for AV and ITS.
In all cases the AV integrator shall install the system with the guidance of this document taking into account the
workspace the system is being install in. The function of the workspace cannot be compromised by the AV
install and the install shall conform to the overall concepts set out in the areas design.
RMIT requires that all contractors follow approved procedures and apply for permits for certain works. Further
information is available on the RMIT property services web site or the Project Manager.
2.4.2
Provision of a fully working system
The AV Integrator must supply all items necessary to provide a fully working system in line with the AV
specification, design intent and any relevant statutory authority, whether specifically mentioned within the
documentation or not.

Environmental Effects on Audio Visual
2.18.1 Lighting
A number of the RMIT AVS designs contain the capability for Lecture Capture and Video Conferencing. These
spaces need special consideration given to the overall impact of both natural and artificial light on the quality of
the imagery being captured. The rooms standard lighting design may need to be adjusted to suit the intended
capture area or have additional specialised lighting included.
The room may also need to have the natural lighting controlled via blinds. The preferred install would have
motorised blinds that can be controlled via the rooms AV system. When a room function that involves cameras
is selected the lights would call up the preconfigured scene.
The needs of each space should be considered on a case-by-case basis to ensure the user experience and
functionality is kept at a high standard.
2.18.2 Audio
Consideration should given to wall and floor treatments when an audio visual system is installed to ensure a
high level of quality is achieved. The DSP configuration may not be enough to make some spaces acceptable

TCP/IP Addressing
At the commencement of the project, the AV Integrator must populate the Equipment Schedule (live document)
with details of all the devices that require an assigned TCP/IP address. As a minimum the AV Integrator must
provide the device make, model, location (room number), MAC address and outlet number. The Principal /
RMIT ITS will then populate the IP address, subnet and gateway details.
The IP addresses of all AV equipment must be assigned dynamically if supported by the device. The RMIT
DNS server will allocate a fixed TCP/IP address based on the devices MAC address. RMIT ITS will issued
these address as part of the construction process via the equipment spread sheet. RMIT require this spread
sheet to be populated with MAC address, port numbers and item name before an TCP/IP address can be
issued.
Final settings and configurations shall be included with the Deliverable documentation.

SPECIFICATIONS
4.1
ROOM CLASSIFICATION
In order to maintain a level of consistency for end users as well as maintenance staff, a University wide design
strategy has been developed to establish a set of standard formats for teaching spaces and the associated AV
facilities. Venues with AV devices will be classified as one of the following formats as described in the table
below. Specialist and other spaces may fall outside of the standards covered in this document. In these
instances, a bespoke design will be completed to provide the required functionality. These bespoke designs,
where possible, will be derived from the standards and preferred equipment lists detailed in this document.
The new designs incorporate the current digital AV technologies such as HDMI, wide screen projection (16:10)
and higher resolutions (WXGA1280:800 & WUXGA1920:1080). To allow for greater flexibility within a general
teaching space devices such as Bluray players and document cameras are now peripheral based and are
connected to the AV system via the resident PC. i.e. USB for document cameras and in the case of the Bluray
provided with the resident PC. Larger spaces such as lecture theatres will still utailse standalone devices.
The new designs are a total digital solution and provide legacy support for VGA connectivity. No direct support
is provided for older analogue signals such as Composite (CV), Component (YPBPR, YUV, RGB), S-Video etc.
These signals will be “scan converted” to digital prior to connection to the AV system. In the short term
portable scan converters are available by contacting the AV department via the service desk.
Room functionality from the previous AV standards has been maintained or increased due to peripheral based
devices and adoption of HDMI. This allows the designs to be aligned to the size of the room. The standards
also include designs for use in meeting and office spaces where there is less demand on the AV system and
accessories such as remote controls are easily secured. This means that Pro-domestic LCD panels can be
installed and generic remotes used as the control systems. The new standards are not a one-for-one
replacement of the old and the following table shows the correlation between the two.

Design Building Blocks
The Audio Visual systems in RMIT have been designed with specific requirements to suit the many facets of
our business. The standard designs should be suitable for the majority of the spaces but in the event that
changes need to be made the table below in conjunction with the Building Blocks schematic can be used to
adapt or enhance a Standard system. The design adaptations are available to be added to a system to ensure
the governing standards are reflected while maintaining equipment from our supportable list.
Where a custom design is required, it will be developed to meet the technical requirements of the AV
standards, user requirements and the anticipated life cycle of the room. Where possible equipment shall be
from the Approved Equipment List or current vendors. Custom designs must be approved by RMIT AV prior to
implementation.

Lecture Capture
Currently RMIT uses the Echo360 system for capturing lectures. Audio, video (copy of the projected image)
and a PTZ Camera input can be captured in a single session. When a booking is made for a specific room and
time the capture device encodes audio, video and camera and delivers it to a centralised server system for
student access. Note: Camera selection is optional at time of booking.
The Echo360 device shall be supplied by RMIT. It is the AV Integrators responsibility to install and integrate
the Echo360 with the required system for audio and video recording. Network cabling shall be directly
connected between the device and the RMIT telecommunications outlet (i.e. no intermediate network switch)
and the Echo360. Network cabling must comply with the RMIT IT standards for communication cabling for
4
installation and termination (See Section 10.4 of RMIT Design Standards – Section 10 Communications ).
4.6
Digital Signage
Currently RMIT uses the NEC Live system for Digital Signage. The system can either by installed as a Player
mounted behind a panel or software installed on to a PC. The integrator shall supply a license if required.
